Blog post 7 – Knowledge.

To me, knowledge is what you already know about something before having to research more about it and learning is when you use other helpful stuff like, books and other piece of work to help yourself have better understanding about specific topic. Hyland defines knowledge as “demonstrating disciplinary credentials, showing themselves to be reasonable, intelligent co-players in the community’s efforts to construct knowledge and well versed in its tribal lore.”

Collaboration plays a huge role in knowledge- making process because collaborating is gathering up information in different ways for the same topic to gain your understanding about the topic, so collaborating provides you with much more extra information to learn and gain your knowledge from.

While researching my project I will be focusing more into how collaboration of people brought the discourse community of soccer together and how it has expended over the years. Knowing that soccer is a huge community, when your talking about entire community and not a singe team.
